Key Findings

  • “Edge computing is a critical component for most enterprise’s digital transformation ambitions, and edge computing projects are already taking place across industries and throughout enterprises.”
  • “Most deployments are focused on individual use cases, and enterprises are creating disjointed islands of edge computing technologies, processes, and skills across their enterprises.”
  • “Enterprises that approach edge computing projects independently and nonstrategically are inefficient and less agile, and will find their digital ambitions stifled.”
